Steve Ballmer Egged at Budapest
This is a little snip from YouTube when Microsoft’s CEO Steve Ballmer was thrown with eggs by a protesting student in Budapest.
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer was thrown with eggs in BudapestBallmer was giving a talk titled, You Can Change the World, to Hungarian university students when someone from the audience stood up, demanded that Microsoft should return money it has stolen from Hungarian people and threw eggs, right in front of Ballmer’s face. Ballmer scrambles for cover as he dodges the eggs, and luckily, he still has a clean face when stood up from behind the podium.
The angry student, sporting a tshirt that says, “Microsoft Corruption”, was escorted out of the room immediately after the disruption.
It is still unclear to me if the protester is an Open Source advocate, with too much MS hate inside, or maybe an Anger Management therapy is in order. Either way, Hungary is now as popular as Microsoft itself. 
Ballmer was lucky enough to dodge the eggs, but not Bill Gates, who got a cream pie to his face ten years ago at Brussels, Belgium.

I’m not a fan of Microsoft or of Google. However, when you’re the big kid on the block, a lot of people would try to take you down. That’s just how some people are.

Poor Steve… I guess that’s what you get for working for Bill.
I hope the student won’t get thrown out of the university.
